Handgun database like anything else we keep track of

Why would any reasonable person object to government agencies keeping a record of those who buy guns? If you buy a house, there's a record. Get married, there's a record. Buy Sudafed, apply for a credit card, get a Social Security card, go on the Internet, make a call on your cell phone - there's a record.

Society as a whole benefits from this recordkeeping. What are the gun aficionados, lobbyists, government haters afraid of?

If they're all so law-abiding and pure of heart, why the opposition?
